How LaTresa Uses CBT and Mindfulness Online

LaTresa uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. CBT focuses on practical, step-by-step changes such as breaking large problems into smaller tasks and tracking the impact of new actions.

She also draws on mindfulness therapy to help people build awareness of thoughts and bodily reactions. Mindfulness practice can reduce reactivity and make it easier to choose responses in stressful moments, which can be useful for anger, anxiety, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. LaTresa will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is tracked.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find that working with a licensed professional this way helps them practice skills in real life between sessions without changing their routine.
